I thought the cambelt on the IS should be changed at 100k/6 years???? If you don't want to go to Lexus for the cambelt change consider using a good local garage

BTW........whats the mileage/age of your lex?

[Fidgits]

kam is correct, its 6 years or 100k - whichever comes first...

the cam belt is expensive, an independent would be cheaper, but you'll still be paying a lot.

i got a letter from Lexus Hanley a couple of days ago with a price list for all models for the cambelt change. I'm pretty sure it was around the £200 mark for a is200. I'm at work just now, but i'll put the correct price on when i get home.

Thanks for your help guys your right sorry 1000.00miles or 6 years

mine is at 68500 now and its seven years old so probably needs changing

I tried 4 Local garages and none of them can do a cam belt change they recon theres to many specialist tools etc which only Lexus hold.

So im booked on a collect and return service next week with Oxford Lexus and they gonna give me lovely Courtesy car (All Free Buy the way Guys) whilst the belt is being replaced.

£320.00 but suppose peace of mind it's being done properly

Thanks

Lexus Hanley are doing it for £191 all inclusive. Probably a bit cheaper for GOLD members as well.

Wow thats so much cheaper than I been quoted hanleys some 140miles away though bit far I was quoted £400 from Reading Lexus, £320 from Oxford and now Hanley at £190 im supprised there is so much variation i would have thought it ed be standard fixed prices nationaly in the mean time ill keep looking for a better deal

thanks for looking that up by the way

Will becoming a gold member save me money at main Lexus Dealers Then?
